I
vessel in compliance with an Invita
tion to lunch. He was welcomed by
n salute. Distinguished companies
participated in both cnleitainmcnls,
besides the guests of the occasions,
and the Itoynl Hawaiian Hand fur
nished nuibiu in each case.
Tin: sale of real estate at auction
this nioi ning by Lewis .1. Levey was
well attended. The house and lot
onlCwaside of Fort sticct, above
Kttktii, was sold to Win. Javrclt for
82,700.
O.ni: of the sliccp by the steamer
J. 1. Dow&ett this morning was
smotlicicd to death. The captain
says it is very common for the shrcp
to rush to a corner of the vessel,
and if one falls it is gcneially
smothered by the others tramping
on it. It takes six or eight men
sometimes to separate the sheep
when thus huddled together, and
when it occuis at night thcie is no
hope for those underneath.
Monday, Sept. 28th.
Tin: assignee of a Chinese bank
rupt estate is weighed down with
the problem of how to pay S2 1,000
of liabilities with 1,000.
Urn Lilitic correspondent writes,
"The Japs from Koloa Plantation
still refuse to return, but they aie
at work all right in prison."
Mn. llalstcnd, of AVaialua, having
had a double effect shipped to his
plantation and the place enlarged,
expects to increase the yield of
sugar this season by thice or four
hundred toils.
An opposition Chinese theatre is
being fitted up in the old Custom
House. The old theatre has been
thoroughly overhauled. Its stage
is now lesplcndcnt with a backing
of gorgeous tinsel and frescoes.
Ox .Saturday the Married Men
defeated the Hawaii club at base
ball, by eight to six. Mr. II. M.
Whitney, Jr., acted with satisfac
tion to all as umpire. The Punahou
school boys defeated the Fort street
boys, the same day, eighteen to
nine.
A i.itti.i: boy named Charlie
Thornton Young, aged live years,
was drowned in Nuuaiiu stieam, at
lvapena Falls, on Saturday after
noon, lie had followed an elder
brother and other boys, when they
went to bathe, and it is supposed
fell into the water above the falls.
A i.inrmt dated July filth came
by the steamer Australia last night
from Capl. Bray of the missionary
brig Morning Star. At the time of
writing they were in the Gilbert
Islands and about to sail for link.
All hands arc repoitcd well and the

Tin: accounts of a bankrupt Chi
nese mci chant at Koliala reveal the
fact that he handled $2,700 woith
of liquor within the space ol one
year. The Honolulu dealer who
supplied this illicit stock-in-tiade
was paid almost in full for it. Legi
timate creditors are the only ones
who have occasion to walk the iloor
of nights on account of the bank
ruptcy. Mit. L. J. Levey, the auctioneer,
sent word to Mr. Howe this morning
to paint oyer the sign on the build
ing formerly occupied by A. W.
Peircc & Co., piepaiatory to the
painting of Levey's sign. Mr. Howe
sent "a kanaka to do the work and
he executed his commission with a
vengeance. lie went to E. P.
Adams's salesrooms, and while Mr.
.las. Morgan,
was sitting in
the junior paitner,
a chair building cas
thc painter mounted
ties in the
air,
u ladder and obliterated Adams's
sign all but two letters. Just then
Mr. Morgan's castles tumbled and
o did the native painter.
Tin: P. M. S. S. Australia, from
this Colonies for S.in Francisco, ar
rived last midnight and sailed
shoitly after two o'clock this morn
ing. She had only one passenger
for this poit. Mr. X. S. Sachs went
away by her to buy his autumn
goods. He expects to be back by
the next trip of the Alameda. Chi
nese to the number of 25, for Hong
kong and Panama, embaiked, "el-
ting on board at almost the last
moment. In the Austialia's fi eight
was something less than seven hun
dred and thirty-two thousand dollars
in'gold specie. She would make a
fat prize for n privateer, supposing
there was war.
Yi:sh:iiday afternoon Marshal
Soper told his servant, a South Sea
Islander, to water the horse, which
was hitched to the Marshal's buggy.
The servant got a bucket of water,
but supposing the horse could not
drink with the bridle on he took it
off. The animal immediately start
ed for a run about the premises,
bumping the carriage against the
trees and every projecting point
until there was no carriage left to
bump with. The marshal caught
the horse once, but as the beast was
determined to finish the job ho broke
away again. When llie animal got
tired and was satisfied with the cir
cus, the marshal looked for the ser
vant but could not Ibid him. He
was a very wise boy tuiiMie iniulo
himself scarce. This is the second
time the eaiac trick was played.
Tt'i:st)AY, Sept. 20th.

snores were distinctly heard twenty
to thiity rods away, round a bend
in the road at that.

Tin: new Chinese theatre on
Queen street was in full blast last
night. The house was crowded,
and many Mongolians assembled on
the wharves near the theatre. Upon
the second floor of the building is
the hall and thetheatie, where blood
and thunder tragedies arc enacted.
The stage is about 20 feet long by
about 12 feet wide, of rough boards,
with nn elevation of two feet above

is a dailc hole where the actors
dtess, and on the third lloor they
roost.
Enoixi: Co. No. l's ball comes off
in the Yosemitc Skating Bink on
Thursday evening next. It is the
first time in many years that the
Company has had to look to the
public for funds. There are few
organizations mote deserving of
support than the fire companies that
have so often saved the city from
destt uction. The price of tickets is
very reasonable, and the "fire lad
dies" may be depended upon to
make every preparation for the
pleasure of their patrons. Dancing
will begin at 8:30 o'clock.
Tin: finest marc in the kingdom
wus lost to the Government on Sat
uulay lust. She was drawing a catt
in Pauoa Valley, and diiven by a
prisoner. The latter handled the
animal so unskilfully as to cause her
to break a leg, and she had to be
shot to end her misery. This was
one of the splendid horses imported
by Mr. Lishman from New Zealand,
and was admired for her massive
build by all who saw her. She cost
I 8350 and belonged to the Govern
ment. Some sin prise is heard ex
piessed that such valuable stock is
entrusted to the chaige of convicts.

STATEMENT.
rpiIE undersigned, a Committee of 1)1
J, lectors of the Equitable Life As.
Btirnnco Society of tho United States,
appointed to foiinulalo the views of the
Hoard on the advantages offered by the
Society to the public, icport i
1st The Society issues all tho approv
ed forms of avsurnncc, including Ordi
nary Life, Endowment and Tontlno po
licies. It Is immaterial to tho Directors
which form of policy is token by In.
tend I ni: assurers.
2d Tito Llfo ond Endowment forms
of policy piovldo for annual cnsli illvl.
dends undo surrender value; ore Indis
putable after thrco years and paynble
immediately after pioof of dcatli.
3d The premiums on n Tontine po
licy nro tho same ns on tho Ordinary
Lite, but, while the latter is only pay.
able in the event of death, the holder of
the Tontine policy has the light to draw
the whole of the reserve mm tho nccu.
initiated profits in cash at tho cud of a
stated period; thus, during his own life
time, after his producing years aie past,
he can, without any larger premium
than on an ordinary policy, sccuio these
greater advantages.
4th Experience shows that tho tcttirn
paid in cash on maturing Tontine po
licics approximates to or exceeds the
amount of premiums paid by policy
holder, so that tho average cost of tlio
assurance will be only about the interest
on the premiums.
Glh Tontine policies, like other', aie
paid In full in the event of death at any
time during tho term of the policy, and
ore incontestable after thice years, and
payable immediately after due proof of
death.
Cth Experience shows that the mor
tality is lower among Tontfno policy
holders, ns the better lives seek this
kind of assurances, which is a consider
able source of profit.
7th Tontine policies will be made
non-forrcit.ible under the laws of the
State, if so desired at thu time the as
surance is effected.
8th The Tontine system Is fair and
just; its accounts arc accurately kept,
separate from all other business, tho
funds judiciously invested and Improv
ed, and tho accumulated profits faith,
fully guarded andpropcily appoilioncd.
0th The Society has since its oignni.
zation tiansactcd u larger amount of
now business than any other company,
while its now business for the first half
of the present year is 1,700,000 larger
than that of the first half of 1881. It
has Assets of $G0,000,000 ; over $14,000,
000 of Surplus, and its ratio of Surplus
to Liability is greater than that of any
other company.
